Chandigarh contractors asked to install smart features in parking lots

28 Aug 2021 CW Team

The parking branch of the Municipal Corporation Chandigarh (MCC) has filed a full report on the current state of the parking lots and their operation to the additional municipal commissioner, who forwarded it to the municipal commissioner.

The parking branch also sent a notice to the paid parking contractors, requesting that they follow the terms of the memorandum of understanding (MoU) and install all smart features on the ground.

The move comes in response to the orders of the senior officials to post a detailed report on parking, as an adviser to UT administrator Dharampal recently reprimanded the MC for failing to ensure smart features in paid parking lots in accordance with a contract signed by the MC and private contractors.

The two-page detailed report includes the number of challans issued to paid parking contractors for violating the rules so far, as well as the details of the penalties imposed on them.

In addition, the report contains other information, primarily about smart features that have been installed in lots so far in accordance with the MoU, as well as those that have not, their reasons and their current status.

The engineering department of the civic body conducted a physical inspection to determine the true state of the paid parking lots on the ground and then filed a report to the parking branch.

Following the inspection report, the paid parking contractors were given the notice to implement smart features.

According to the media, paid parking contractors were granted exemptions due to the pandemic as the material was unavailable. The issue was brought up at the monthly general house meeting, where councillors requested that they be given some time.
